Many prefer the heat pump to electric baseboards. In fact, a good quality heat pump is synonymous with increased comfort and savings.

Professional Service

The installation, maintenance, and repairs are done by HydroSolution partners.

These partners, like Entreprises MST, are specialists in air conditioning and heating. Their technicians include refrigeration engineers and certified electricians. The installation of your device is carried out in accordance with the manufacturer’s strict standards to ensure optimal performance.

Foolproof Guarantees

By opting for a rental, any repairs are free of charge.

Every three years, an inspection is done as well as preventive maintenance. During this maintenance, the filters and exterior unit are cleaned thoroughly. Here again, this maintenance is free of charge.

The rental contract lasts for 7 years. After that period, you can continue your monthly payments to extend your term and remain under our warranty. You also have the option to buy back the unit.

And if You’re a Tenant?

If you don’t own your home but would like to benefit from the comfort and savings that a heat pump offers, is it possible to rent one?

Yes, it’s possible, but you need to come to an agreement with your landlord beforehand and get their authorization because if you move out, they become responsible for the heat pump rental payment.

Determining the Correct Amount of BTUs

What is a BTU? BTU is a unit of measure for energy.

How to determine the number of necessary BTUs for the optimal functioning of your heat pump? Calculate the area (length x width) of the space you want to heat or air condition. This can be a room or a floor if your house has an open-space concept. Multiply your total by 10, then round up to the highest number.

For example:

28 pi x 40 pi = 1,120 sq. ft

1120 x 10 = 11,200

11,200 rounded up = 12,000

Number of required BTU = 12,000

The general rule is 12,000 BTU by 1,000 sq. ft.

The Importance of Determining the Number of Appropriate BTUs for Your House

Some may think that by taking the most powerful system, they’ll air-condition and heat their house without any problem. However, some factors must be considered:

The more powerful a device is, the more expensive it will be to rent or buy.

A device that is too powerful will constantly stop and restart, which will lead to premature wear of your system and will reduce its lifespan.

In air conditioning mode, a heat pump dries the air while air conditioning it. However, with a system that is too powerful, the air will be air-conditioned in the blink of an eye, but the device will not have time to dry it. As a result, you will end up with ambient air that is cold and humid; the opposite of comfort.

Apply for a Grant

Certain heat pump models may be eligible for a government grant.
